We know because we've been in business long enough to hear from customers years after they've made their first pizza oven purchase. When it comes to pizza ovens, there is a big difference between brick ovens that are handcrafted in Portugal and those that are assembled in a factory.
We can't share our expertise about this particular brick oven in 15 seconds but, if you have 2 minutes, keep reading...
Brick ovens that are handmade in Portugal are made using traditional brick-making techniques. The bricks used to build the ovens are carefully selected and kiln-fired to create a durable and long-lasting product. The brick ovens assembled in factories, on the other hand, are often made from brick that is mass-produced in a more industrial setting.
While brick ovens assembled in factories may be less expensive, they are not necessarily of the same quality as brick ovens made by hand. When it comes to cooking pizzas, brick ovens made by hand in Portugal offer a superior cooking experience. The bricks used to build these ovens absorb heat evenly, providing a consistent cooking surface.
OVEN FEATURES & SPECIFICATIONS
Note: As these ovens are handmade, no two are exactly the same - the dimensions and color may not be exact but are close.
All of our ovens are AUTHENTIC BRICK not CLAY! Be careful of this when shopping oven brands- there IS A DIFFERENCE. Our ovens are HANDMADE in Portugal and are triple-insulated, which means the outside of the oven is cool to the touch while the inside is blazing hot!
Each oven has an inner layer of authentic fire brick and mortar, which is then covered with a thick layer of our own international patent of Rockwool Insulation that is secured with metal batting before an additional layer of refractory cement — guaranteeing durability and efficiency. Here is a sneak peek video of how these ovens are made from our factory in Portugal:
Premium Hardware Upgrade: The Buena Ventura Premium Pizza Oven boasts premium hardware, including a black NON-RUST CAST ALUMINUM door, chimney cavity, and STAINLESS STEEL chimney. The door features a peep-through high-heat viewing window, providing a glimpse into your culinary creations.
This may sound exaggerated but yes, you can fit multiple pizzas inside this oven, but realistically, here's how Patio & Pizza recommends you get the most use out of your space. We've scaled it down so you can get the picture.

Is this the same as the Brazza Premium Pizza Oven
The Buena Ventura oven is very similar to the Brazza brick oven. Both are handmade by the same craftsmen in Portugal and both have the same premium door and flue system. The main difference is their front face arches. They are slightly different in appearance so it just depends on which style you like for your backyard pizza oven.
I am interested to purchase the Buena Ventura Black PREMIUM Brick Wood Fired Pizza Oven What are your suggestion about adding a chimney and cap?
The chimney and cap are not really necessary but most of our customers would consider adding these accessories to make their cooking experience a lot more enjoyable. Without the chimney, the smoke from your oven will escape through the flue and will make your cooking area smokey. The chimney will help bring all the smoke up and farther away from your face and your cooking area. A cap will protect anything from getting inside your chimney.
